abstract
Given an $S\cong \mathbb{R}P^2$ smoothly embedded in a 4-manifold $X^4$ with Euler number 2 or -2, the Price twist is a surgery operation on $\nu(S)$ yielding (up to) three different 4-manifolds: $X^4,\tau_S(X^4),\Sigma_S(X^4)$. This is of particular interest when $X^4=S^4$, as then $\Sigma_S(X^4)$ is a homotopy 4-sphere which is not obviously diffeomorphic to $S^4$. In this paper, we show how to produce a trisection description of each Price twist on $S\subset X^4$ by producing a relative trisection of $X^4\setminus\nu(S)$. Moreover, we show how to produce a trisection description of general surface complements in 4-manifolds.

The relative $\mathcal{L}$-invariant of a compact $4$-manifold
The relative L-invariant is zero only for the 4-ball among rational homology balls, and relative trisections are unique up to interior stabilization, relative stabilization, and the new relative double twist.
